Torture excercises: What do you do?

[SubjectiveIllusion]

*exclamer* Subjective information.

Definition: Torture excercise - An excercise that is extremely physically and/or mentally painfull. (What else is there to say!?!)

A torture excercise can be squats, deadlifts, multiple rep stiff-legged deadlifts, running in a rubber suit, skipping for a long time, etc...

The excercise I do I call the 'sustained pushup position.' Heres how you do it:

1. Get some good motivating music playing.
2. Get in the pushup position.
3. Put a watch or anything with a timer directly under your head.
4. Straighten your back.
5. Arms perpendicular to floor.
6. Start timer.
7. Maintain untill you colapse.
8. Stop timer.

You may use pushup handles if your legs are elevated at the same height as your hands. You may not move your hands or feet in any way. The timer is stopped when you move your hands, feet, or your midsection touches the floor. Your head may face down or forward. It would be wise to take off your shirt to avoid sweating too much.

My record is 21 minutes (which I'm not to proud of.) After 4 minutes I start sweating. After 10 I'm soaked. Shoulders, abs, legs, back in alot of pain. 14 Sweat dripping off head onto timer. I'm shaking like I've got severe hypothermia. Want to quit. Time slowing down exponentally. 18 Back starting to colaspse, looks like I'm having convulsions, singing along to music and laughing hysterically because the pain is so intense. 20-21 minutes is like 18 but multiplied by 4. The natural painkillers are giving you a super-high. Ahhhhhh...

I've got many more but this one is my favorite..

Do you guys have any ideas for torturous excercises?

Feel free to enter your time for the 'sustained pushup position' if you care to try it..

i consider anything on leg day to be torture. Not because of the direct pain, but because of the next (and one or two after that) days pain.

 

[Mike_Rojas]

We did that in boot camp.. fun stuff

youre weird...

 

[PlatnumKowboy]

I don't know to me it sounds like a great way to condition your mind for working through pain.

 

[makedah]

The excercise I do I call the 'sustained pushup position.'

That sounds an awful lot like the hovers they do in yoga and various cardio classes. Not for 20 minutes, though.

Yes they do. I remember doing 1 1/2 squats (going all the way down, up, half way down, then up) for 8-12 reps, only 3 sets, but all out. I did this after not excercising for a couple months. I started to feel muscle sorenesss after about 4 or 5 hours. I remember thinking "how can I be sore so early?" It was the worst case of DOMS I've ever had. I couldn't walk to well for about a week and it took at least another for the pain to go completely away. Well, none of that no more,.. I wreaked my back trying to be Franco Columbo doing deadlifts. I'm only 24

We did that in boot camp.. fun stuff

Tell all.. I was in the Canadian Navy Reserve. I remember doing the shuttle run (running back and forth to certain points trying to beat a timer that gets quicker and quicker) on a hot day after drinking 6 12oz glasses of 2% milk. I thought I was 'hard core.' Nobody cared. Only me. I cramped up with massive stomach pain on round 6 (6 is the requirement to pass the test. Most stop at level 6). It felt my stomach was twisting and turing, bloating, a hard hard pressure inside. I continued till round 11 1/4. Near the end it was just me, a stubby 5'5" vs a skinny guy about 6 foot or more. I kept running a little,. turned around... He was gone. I was the last guy running. He just fucking shut'er down. The fucken pussy. And why? He could've beat me easy. He just didn't want to take the pain. I asked him after what happened. He said "a sore leg." If he stuck in there for about 30 seconds he would've beat my stubby, fat, over-prided ass.. And yes I do have alot of pride, love to brag! and ZGzaZ maybe your right! The main thing is 'I' love 'me' and thats all that really counts.

I find that people who admire physical torture are a slimming few these days. I enjoy hearing stories of torture,.. but thats just 'me.'

 

[JollyRogers]

torture.... ok let me see, my grade 10 math teacher.

 

[casualbb]

My workouts are never that hard. It's the eating that's the challenge.

 

[louden_swain]

cycling, wrestling, deadlifting, and squats.

 

[MeatHead57]

take a 45 lb weight or a 100 lb weight hold it out in front of u and push it out bring it abck til you drop it and watch your feet we had to do this as deciplin for wrestling hurt like a bitch!!

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Heres another one: Sleep deprivation. Stay up as long as possible till you drop. I know its not excercise but its still torture!

Heres the link to see my 4.5 day (no stimulants) sleep deprivation log/results: http://www.occultforums.com/viewtop...start=30&sid=f42d2e0846d71f57ffe06df1cc7854ea

Enjoy!!!

 

[revexrevex]

I don't think this is the right board for you.

 

[Chris Benoit]

Shrug bar deadlifts for reps. In my opinion harder than squats as far as physical effort required, but easier as far as being able to maintain form. squats, deadlifts stiff legged deadlifts, I sometimes still have a tendency to punk out early and not finish the set if I don't prepare mentally enough. Stationary bike at a high tension. Used to do that for half an hour, by 15 minutes my heart rate would be near 200 and the only way to get through it was taking it 30 seconds to 1 minute at a time and listening to music to motivate me. Wall sit, sitting against a wall with the legs bent at 90 degrees for as long as possible, huge thigh burn hard to walk afterwards. Running a mile or 2 as fast as possible, near the end your heart feels like its going to explode and no matter how hard you breathe you cant get enough air. . Notice this is all intense lower body work.

i'm sorry, but i still dont get this one....why would you see how long you can stay up just to do it?

 

[Exodus]

I don't think this is the right board for you.

now now........ he may be different.... but that doesnt mean he should go away.

i have a question to any westside barbell users who read this. could his idea of tourture pushups be a good Active Recovery exercise. or for that matter any kind of staticly held exercise. maybe not for that length of time, but still. i mean the reason wsb drag the sled as AR is becuase there is no negative motion involved with it at all......... so would some statics be good for the body????

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Why I am the way I am..

Chris Benoit:

I'd have to say squats and deadlifts are alot harder for me. But everyones different. I find I sweat more doing dumbell curls then benching. Hmmmm.

I understand your pain with the stationary bike. I've done some lactate threshold training at 94% MHR for one hour (warmup times not included) on the treadmill. You've got me beat here I've never went over 194 bpm. Though my resting heart rate at the time was around 38-42 bpm, so this is about 5 times faster then it.

I've done the wall-sit and destroyed my hamstring tendons. I can no longer run anymore. Yes, I'm a wreck! I can still bike and do the elliptical trainer, Yay!!! LOL

i'm sorry, but i still dont get this one....why would you see how long you can stay up just to do it?

This is very complex. Your asking me to explain why I am the way I am. I'll try..

Ever since I was young I've always liked a good challenge. For some reason I have this mindset that I 'must' do something physically torturing if I 'can' do it. Even once I do it I know I can always do better, and so my standard is perpetually escalating. That is until I wreck something. Then I stop, and find another thing to surpass in. I think its a disorder. I'm not sure what they call that but maybe I don't wanna know. Putting a lable on it will only exasperate my situation. When I found out I had severe orthorexia nervosa, I looked it up on the net. Sure enough I found information and only intensified the symptoms.

I also 'love' the challenge of fasting. Its so easy for me to do and when I do it I get this mental high (pride). It seems noone else has the intestinal fortitude to be able to go on for any 'lengthy' amount of time. So I've done 9.5 and 10.5 days on plain water. I am not proud of that though. I think I can do much better. People have done 30, 40 and 100 days on just water. I usually have to stop because my energy levels are too low for work. I keep thinking that if I reach a certain goal I will stop. Nope. Never happens!

My most crazy endeaver yet to be done (Yes, it gonna be stupid!): No food, no sleep, and the midsection may not touch a solid surface. So basically I have to stand the whole time. This rule leaves room for me to bike to work standing, as saying the feet must always touch the ground would not allow me to. This won't be too much of a problem since I refuse to sit all day at work anyways (add that to my disorder..) I think I can do at least 3 days standing. Sleep deprivation 4.5 - 6 days. No food - A month or more. Don't @#$% around. I'm serious! When I put my mind to something, I 'lock-on.' I actually can make myself 'believe' I don't wanna sit, sleep, or eat. The only thing 'trying' to hold me back is my body's natural instincts. And I've even got ways of fooling that!

As you can see I'm my favorite subject! LOL

 

[casualbb]

Exodus -- static "torture" stuff is no good because it fatigues you. You don't want to be unable to perform your upper days if you're pooped from some pushup death holds.

 

[Chris Benoit]

I totally forgot to mention interval training or sprints, either running or on the bike, maybe cuz I've never done them much. But I remember after doing them laying down on the ground and nearly falling sleep, just like sometimes after squats or deadlifts lol. I've puked a few times but I have yet to pass out from any exertion though, even though my girlfriend tells me sometimes it looks like my heads gonna explode during my last reps of a set. I don't really consider myself a super hard trainer, but I try to do my best. SubjectiveIllusion, I'm not a masochist like you lol but I think it's good to really test yourself at least sometimes, I think it builds character. No way I'm gonna stop eating though I tip my hat to you, you've got my respect, just be careful.

 

[slobberknocker]

Well today I did my deadlift workout and wasn't very happy with it, so I started over and did the whole thing again.

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Exodus -- static "torture" stuff is no good because it fatigues you. You don't want to be unable to perform your upper days if you're pooped from some pushup death holds.

Yes, true. Thats why I leave it till the end of my workout. I also only do it on high energy days. If I don't wanna do it, I don't. Nothing is ever 'forced.' I like pain, but only when I want it.

Chris Benoit: Puking is not good. Its a sign of unhealthiness. I think it happens when the body cannot circulate enough blood to keep the muscles in the throat tight so the food doesn't come back up. The blood is needed in the legs so it goes there instead. But I have mad respect for anyone who excerts enough to do it. Props!!! I've never puked. Infact I 'hate' puking. Just the feel of it. For some reason I think I should be doing it. I've got every other disorder. I can remember getting the flu as a child. Whenever I was about to hurl I swallow at the 'exact' time. I timed it so perfectly I hardly ever puked.

slobberknocker: I guess you 'could' start all over again, with 'half' the energy might I add. Training at this time is about a useless as I could imagine, but the discipline is increadible.

A long time ago when my workouts were not up to par (most likely from overtraining or tiredness) I'd just keep drop setting by 5 lbs till I'm doing the same weight 10 times over and over and over. I would then do a muscle flush with a moderate weight at the end, not that it adds to anything. Once your that fatigued you can't get anymore pumped. Infact your pump decreases, you sometimes also get the shakes. I noticed this is effective for pain but I found I never got that sore the next day or for that matter gained any strength. I gave it up for that reason.

masochist - Hmmmmm. I never knew what it meant till today (looked it up.) I don't like the sound of it on the tongue. It sounds 'bad.' I'm not doing this to be or look bad at all. I like the term 'hard core' much better.

 

[hellboy]

Fasting and going without sleep will be extremely counter productive to gaining any kind of mass. I'm guessing that's not an issue with you though.

Ever tried sticking pins through your nipples?

 

[nu2shirt]

the most torturous exercise i have done so far is: sumo zerchers off the floor. after doing them, i am in a mix of dry heaving, hearing voices, and stumbling around.

 

[revexrevex]

I was doing zerchers from the knee, and they are incredibly hard. I cant even imagine from the floor

[Becoming]

I find that people who admire physical torture are a slimming few these days. I enjoy hearing stories of torture,.. but thats just 'me.'

I used to love conditioning and all the other messed up stuff I have had to do. Runnning ladders and windsprints were the best... I like you found the best satisfaction was in just beating everyone else who could not suck it up.

One to add to the list- running up a 30-40 ft steep hill with a team-mate in full football gear on your back. I always used to pick the fattest kid (at first cause on one else would, but later it was a matter of pride) I used to haul up the hill with the 340lb whale on my back.....

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Fasting and going without sleep will be extremely counter productive to gaining any kind of mass. I'm guessing that's not an issue with you though.

Fasting I would agree to being counterproductive to building muscle. You're right it is not an issue with me. I am in the best shape in my lift right 'now,' here typing on the keyboard. I still will have the urge to fast untill walking up stairs is like running a 10K. I love the challenge. I love the feeling of wasting away and building up again.

Sleep deprivation, no difference. You would tend to 'think' it will slow gains down but from what I've heard and what I've experianced I tell a different story. I've got ripped and made excellent gains on 3-4.5 days no sleep. I have it all logged in my journal. You get ripped as a result of having less calories per waking hour. You may feel exceptionally lethargic when you first start warming up. Then you'll amaze yourself. Your poundages will be the same or higher. I've tried it too many times with too little sleep. I also maintain good form throughout.

Ever tried sticking pins through your nipples?

I could. I wouldn't want to.. I did have a tongue ring before.

the most torturous exercise i have done so far is: sumo zerchers off the floor. after doing them, i am in a mix of dry heaving, hearing voices, and stumbling around.

Is this some kind of neck strengthening excercise? How do you do it?

Runnning ladders and windsprints were the best...

I'm not sure how you do these excercises. Explain?

I wish I could do that but I'm a cripple when it comes to anything involving the back. I do admire that you can do it.

 

[Becoming]

wind sprints- pick a distance (say width of a football field to start)
now run as fast as you can across.... rest a set period of time (15-20 seconds-adjust depending on your degree of conditioning and your chance of dropping dead) and repeat approximately 15-20 times...

ladders-again a football field works, or cones or what ever you got... do this continuously without a rest..... run to the 10 yard line, run to the back to the goal, run to the 20, run to the goal, run to the 30, run to the goal, run to the 40, run to the goal....etc, etc, hit each rung of the ladder.... got it? There are endless variations of this, 5 yard laddrs, 20 yard, long sprints first, short sprints first, short-long-short, long-short-long.... try going 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,90,80,70,60,50,40,30,20,10

These are both very common athletic torture here in the US....

 

[Peckz]

When i was in the army we had a thing called the soldiers test. Its basically a four day long team competition where they make you do all kinds of torturous shit and hardly gives you any sleep or food. Mostly it consisted of funning very long distance in the wood with tons of gear on your back, crawling kneedeep in mud trough bigass fields and swimming in ice cold water while trying to beat the other teams.

I was seriously fucked up the last day. Most of the people in my team was delusional. When we had reached one of the checkpoints where we where promised food and rest, the officer there told us that the food was five kilometers to the east and the water was five kilometers to the west. That was an extra ten kilometers that we hadn't saved any strength for. I almost cried.

I'm never going back to the stinking army.

 

[Backlash]

Did you guys see the Eco Challenge New Zealand on tv last year? Very interesting adventure race. One team tried to do the whole race (about 4 days worth over mountains, rivers, cliffs, etc) without sleep. One dude went totally delusional and cost them the win.

Did you go after water?

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Becoming: That sounds alot like the shuttle run I did. Hardcore stuff!!! Interval training is quite close to it also. That stuff really gets the heart going!

I was seriously fucked up the last day.

This is exactly what I strive for when I stay up for days. Unfortunately it never happens.

Peckz: Did you achieve the 'port-hole' effect?

Nice! I would love to break that kind of news on someone... thanks for the idea!!.... j/k

 

[Peckz]

Yeah we went for the water no contest. I dont know what the port-hole effect is.
Subjective illusion you're a crazy mofo I love the feeling you get when you have pushed yourself beyond what you thought was possible but i would never do that shit again. I dont think i would even make it with the bulk I'm carrying today plus I'm not eighteen anymore.

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

I dont think i would even make it with the bulk I'm carrying today plus I'm not eighteen anymore.

I'm 25. I Have orthostatic hypotension & bradyarrhythmia, heart murmur and palpitations, bad back, bad legs, and a consistent oral temperature not far off hypothermia,... As for my mind,.. I don't even wanna talk about that! For me being 'hardcore' is not a choice. My body decides for me.


My latest Project:

For research due to curiosity I have decided to undertake a,.. 'special' mission - To subsist exclusively on water. I will 'attempt' to take my anatomy to the brink of its physical and psychological enduring cut-off point.

I will record on a daily basis the following information:

Day number
Weight
Body mass index
Waist circumference
Hip circumference
Waist/hip ratio
Ketone reading
Heart rate
Breath rate
Oral body temperature
Blood pressure
Comments concerning bodily appearance and sensation
Comments addressing emotional and intellectual ability
Duration and intensity of physical excercise routines
General commentary

...I have started a cleansing 'pre-fast' which consists of celery and lettuce to which I will do for the 3 days prior. I will proceed 'all-out' on July 19th.

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in the results. I'm concerned as to if I should post my progress on 'this' board. I suspect I may anger the non-concerned users...

 

[Chris Benoit]

SubjectiveIllusion,
Please don't take this the wrong way but I think you shouldn't do this. You already have health problems and doing these kinds of tests on yourself could just end up making it worse. Why don't you just try to channel all that effort you would put on trying to live on water and just lift weights and absolutely destroy them each time you workout, while eating healthy and sleeping alot. That would be alot better for you. Only do this if you're doctor says it OK though and it won't affect your heart. Better yet, again don't take this the wrong way, but maybe if you haven't already you should try going to see a psychiatrist because this sounds like a very unhealthy obsession. I see a psychiatrist and I'm on meds so theres no need to feel ashamed and don't feel like I'm talking down to you. Theres probably some meds out there that can help you overcome this, or maybe even just talk therapy might help. You're health and life are more valuable than feeling like you have to prove your fortitude or manhood constantly, that really isn't important. Like I said earlier its good sometimes to test yourself physically and mentally but not if its going to destroy your body and health

 

[Mythicalbeing]

Mine would have to be hang cleans.....yeah I know not so bad....but I hate um.

You are so nice to be concerned, but you must understand that I laugh at shit like this. Absolutely no offense intended. Your a great guy for doing what you do and I respect you for that.. It fuels me.

Hang cleans, what are they?

You just reminded me of another torture technique: Hanging from a bar as long as possible.

 

[Chris Benoit]

No offense taken Maybe you should try becoming a Navy SEAL. Seriously it sounds like you have the personality to go through the training necessary.

 

[casualbb]

Actually there's nothing medically serious about missing sleep. Perhaps the worst side effect is a depressed immune system, but that's as bad as it gets.

This one kid stayed awake 11 days as part of a research study. When he finally fell asleep he awoke 15 hours later and felt fine. No ill effect.

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Maybe you should try becoming a Navy SEAL.

I've got attention deficit disorder so my memory is not up-to-par, albeit I have been in the navy reserve. Also remember my bad back and legs, and I would have to be an American citizen for at least 4 years. Not worth it. Besides I don't 'need' no officer yelling at me do cruel things, I do that all by myself (I don't yell though.)

The record for the longest period without sleep is 18 days, 21 hours, 40 minutes during a rocking chair marathon. Recovered just fine.

Torture is a staggered set: front squats/chins, with very short breaks

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

Torture is a staggered set: front squats/chins, with very short breaks

How about doing 1 1/2 rib-expansion squats supersetted with pullovers- Go down half way, breath in and out hard twice. Balistically raise to starting position. Go down all the way, breath in and out hard and fast 3 times. Fire up. This is one rep. Repeat 12 - 20 times. Run to a bench to do 'heavy' pullovers. Do 6-10 reps. Fucken 'give'r!' Keep alternating with no break till you feel sick. Have a bucket near by...

Done right your ribs should be sore in the morning. Mine were!

 

[Tagio]

masochist - Hmmmmm. I never knew what it meant till today (looked it up.) I don't like the sound of it on the tongue. It sounds 'bad.' I'm not doing this to be or look bad at all. I like the term 'hard core' much better.

no, you're a masochist. 'Hard core' is when you're willing to endure pain TO ACHIEVE A GOAL. Masochism is when pain IS the goal.

 

[Liftbig]

interval training, used to do alot of it in high school.

 

[pwr_machine]

Supersets for calves. BRUTAL! They have to grow!

 

[SubjectiveIllusion]

no, you're a masochist. 'Hard core' is when you're willing to endure pain TO ACHIEVE A GOAL. Masochism is when pain IS the goal.

If I had to choose then I'd say I'm more 'hard core.' Goals are very importent to me, more so then 'just' pain.

 

[Tagio]

ok cool from what you said earlier in the thread it sounded like you enjoyed the pain for its own sake, or enjoyed punishing or 'testing' yourself for its own sake, which would be masochistic (not a bad thing it's just what the word means). but you know yourself better than me

 

[IJ26]

I would have to say 20 reps squats or doing walking lunges across a gym back and forth until u fail for weight lifting. Both of these get your heart rate up and involve a ton of muscles. The worst Ive ever felt though was during a track workout running 8 x 400 meter sprints and each one had to be within a certain time of each other. I thought I was going to die from about the 3rd one on.
